I’ve always been a fan of silver. I think its because when I was in highschool and was a raver (circa 1994), everyone wore silver clothing and it always seemed pretty cool and surreal ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Pucette \* > \*\*For me, it’s a tie between dark green and burgundy. \*\* What **Pucette** said, although I refer to the green as “hunter”, as I was taught long ago (by a woman who knew the difference between beige, taupe, and shell). A little color sense in a single man can be a dangerous thing, though. I have to be careful, or my whole house would end up hunter and burgundy! Hopefully, in a few years my daughter will be old enough to take the reins of esoterica away from my incompetent hands. ---

brown and red and brownish-red I was so relieved when I saw that somebody else likes brown. Usually people look at me funny when I say I like brown. Like maybe they think I’m on some kind of drugs or maybe they just think I learned my colors wrong and what I think is brown is really yellow or purple or something like that. It makes me sad and confused. Ok, so it just makes me sad. I’m always confused. And I talk too much. I’ll stop now before I put my foot deep into the dark recesses of my idiotic mouth. By the way, I know that what I just said goes well beyond what was called for to answer the question and probably makes no sense. I just for the life of me can’t stop my fingers from typing. It’s just so much fun. ---

It’s a tie between red and royal blue. 🆒 My least favorite color is that icky brown-green mix I like to call “puke green”. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Yo La Tengo \* > \*\*:rolleyes: > > Was just waiting for someone to do that… \*\* Don’t go rolling your eyes at **Redukter**! The board rules mandate that someone make the obvious **Python** reference when you give them an opening like that! 'Struth! Look it up. Frankly, it’s **embarassing** that three and a half hours went by before someone provided the correct response. Let’s try to pay more attention people! Oh, and red. Not too bright, not too dark. Halfway between Ferrari Red and Burgundy. ---

_bats his eyes at everyone_ The pale green of my eyes is my favorite color. It is the same color of the ocean off the coast of Puna on a sunny day and a calm ocean. ---
